My tech tried firing up 1.4 on an opteron MB with an HT1000 chipset and, although it seems to work, the console is literally flooding with stray irq 7 messages. Freebsd at least suppressed these after a few, but when is someone actually going to FIX this in BSD? Someone told me years ago that this

A flood of stray irq 7 messages is typically indicative of a BIOS SMP configuration problem. It usually means that the PIC is sending EXT interrupt acknowledgement requests to several cpus at once (or to one dual-core cpu), and the BIOS hasn't setup the hardware to properly

:What I see in linux is that the two values are miles apart, :but in *BSD they differ by only a few bytes. I *assume* this :means that in *BSD, t is pointing to a valid memory location :very close to d, whereas in linux t is pointing to some :random number. Does this seem a reasonable idea? :

A dual-core 2.6 Opteron is about US$1079. whereas a single core is about $460. So for about $200. more I can build 2 2.6Ghz systems that give me a lot more bang for my buck than 1 dual-core system. Well, the bleeding edge is always at a premium. But you mention a wall. A wall doing what? Single
